Party Ever After #1
ReWined: Volume 1
Life is short. Time is fast.
No replay. No rewind.
That's my motto.
And there's nothing wrong with that.
That is until the day I turn 27 and everything changes. Suddenly, I'm expected to...
1) Move back to my hometown.
2) Stop partying.
3) Take over my family's winery.
4) And get married.
Wait!
What?
That last one I didn't see coming.
I'm Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, Northern California's most eligible bachelor, and I don't do monogamy. It's just a wild guess but I'd have to say that monogamy isn't going to do me, either.
My grandmother won't listen to a word I have to say on the matter. And since the old battle-axe is still at the helm of my legacy, it's not like I can blow her off. However, when she tells me whom she thinks will make the perfect bride, and then subsequently drops me at said bride's door, I nearly lose my mind. Sure, dear old granny tries to sugarcoat the situation with a lot of glitz and glamour, but there's no turning ash into fairy dust.
Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild isn't only the ultimate party girl and terrible wife material, she's also my sworn enemy. We loathe each other. We have good reason. And it isn't because our families are competitors.
Needless to say, I'm not surprised when the she-devil slams the door in my face--but it still pisses me off.
Apparently, she doesn't know me as well as she thinks.
Doesn't understand I've changed.
Doesn't realize her rejection only spurs me on--makes me want to tame her, claim her, make her mine.
Then again, at 27 I'm no longer a lovesick teenager. I'm a grown man with a big ego and an even bigger...never mind.
Paris says she doesn't want to know how big I am, in any sense of the word.
I don't believe her.
Either way, it doesn't matter.
She's a challenge I can't resist. A temptation I can't ignore. The woman I must have. We haven't spoken in ten years but mark my words, she and I will be doing that and a hell of a lot more--very soon.
Life is short. Time is fast.
Replay. Rewind.
That's my new motto.
And there's no sugarcoating that.

Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III is enjoying life. He just turned 27 and he lives for drinking, partying and nameless girls for one night. But he's also looking forward to finally taking over the family's wine company in Napa. That's what's supposed to happen now that he's 27 - his late grandpa told him to go to wine and law school to prepare for being the boss one day.
But now grandma Wilhemina is telling him he has to get married to his nemesis Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild to save the company - and to save hers too. The fires last year were not good for businesss. Not good at all. A marriage will be the only way to save the family legacy.
But Tyler can't marry Paris. They hate each other. H.A.T.E. They spent an amazing three months together ten years ago, but something happened and now they hate each other, just like their dads and grandpas hated each other!
WHAT TO DO?
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT ☺
BUT - it's a three-part series - so we might not yet find out if we'll ride off into that happily ever after sunset with Tyler and Paris. BUT books 2+3 will be here in two and four weeks!
And don't worry - it's not a horrible someone's-about-to-die-cliffy!☺
═════════════════════
Awww! I LOVED IT!
I don't know what it is with Wine-Country books.... but I adore them.
Maybe it makes me think about spending nights at grandma's place as a kid watching Falcon Crest? A lingering Lorenzo Lamas crush 30 years later? Maybe. Who knows, I just love Napa Valley Romances!
And this one was just adorable.
We first don't love-love Tyler. He's this typical rich-party-boy-manwhore person. But we also see glimpses of the great guy who wants to bring the family's wine company into the 21st century. He has ideas and dreams.
And then there's Paris... she wants just the same for her family's company.
Together they would be perfect for each other and the business.
But of course it's all very complicated ...
I just loved reading this book!
It was funny, adorable, very sexy and a bit sad and heartbreaking.
I can't wait to see what will happen to our two darlings in the second book!
The only think I hate a little is that it's not one whole book! I hate waiting. We don't have to wait long - but still! I really hope I will convince my bookalzheimers to stop making me forget stuff for those two weeks until book #2 will be here! ☺
ReWined was such an adorable & funny & sexy & exciting Enemy-Wine-Families-Romance!!! Run to your nearest amazon for your own Tyler - this one is MINE!!!!

Con Kim Karr, me pasa algo raro. He leído libros muy buenos de ella, libros que pasan sin pena ni gloria y libros francamente intragables. ReWined, salvo que la continuación me ofrezca otra cosa, parece que va a quedarse en "sin pena ni gloria", el tipo de libro que disfrutas en el momento, pero que un par de días ya olvidaste qué leíste.

Tyler wakes up the morning of his 27th birthday not knowing that everything is about to change in his life. He knew that one day he would inherit the family winery, California Jane. He didn’t realise it would happen so soon.
What should be a dream turns into a nightmare when he finds out what really has been going on behind the scenes. Then there are the inheritance conditions laid down by his grandmother. If he wants to save the company he needs to marry, not just anyone though, his ex girlfriend.
It makes perfect business sense but getting Paris to agree to his proposal is not going to be easy. Tyler is not the boy she remembers from 10 years ago, why do men get better looking with age?! She already has a boyfriend and a plan for her future so Tyler knocking on her door is completely disrupting her life.
Why is she entertaining the idea of accepting his proposal then?
This was a fabulous start to this new series from Kim Karr ☺

This was cute but the characters did tend to annoy me sometimes.
ReWined: Volume 1 has two of my favorite things on the cover: Abs & Wine. I'm also drinking some wine while writing this. In it, you will meet Tyler and Paris. It's kind of like a take on Romeo and Juliet but ya know.. it's families that have wineries. Which made me super jealous because that's like a dream job of mine. For my family to own a winery.. lol.
Now I will admit, these two did make me laugh from time to time. Plus their chemistry was off the freaking charts. Heck, those smutty ass scenes were wonderful to read. I loved them together - shipped them to the core. It was a wonderful enemies to loves kind of book but the entire time I was reading this, basically devouring it really, I wanted to know what the hell happened to these two back in the days.
Lowkey, I will totally dive into the next book just because I know it's a three-parter. I need more of these two and everything. I'm also still sort of living through their winery lives and I'm jealous.

ARC received for an honest review
It is always a good day when a new Kim Karr story turns up on your kindle.
Now, I don't even like wine, however I love book set in wine country (I think it because i am thinking of the cheese and cracker platters they always have at wine tastings - because mmm cheese!)
Tyler and Paris have a history that has lead them to not so much like each other in the present. I love a good second chance, I-want-you-but-don't-like-you, hate f*&king kinda story.
You can still feel the pull between between Tyler and Paris, and as much as they try to ignore it, nope, not going to happen.
I got frustrated at the pair of them, just wanted them to stop fighting it, however I knew that was never going to happen.
I am impatient to find out what happened when they were teenagers to make them have all this animosity towards each other.
I mean, the Montagues and Capulets have nothing on this family feud.
We are left on a little bit of a cliffy however it is only 2 weeks until part 2 is released, and only another 2 week until part 3.
I wouldn't say no to Ms Karr releasing them early - just sayin'!

Justin and Paris are sworn enemies according to family traditions of course they must be, but what happens when she is the only girl Tyler desires in his teenage years?
Fast-forward to Justin being a grown man and being dealt with a real eye opener, grow up, get married, and take care of the family business that is failing. I like the premise of this story and where I think it is going. Clearly something went down with Justin and Paris in the past and we have just barely scratched the surface with what happened between the two, but whatever it is seems bad.
I can’t wait for book two to come out and hopefully we will see what happened all those years ago between Justin and Paris, I am dying to find out.

Since his teenage years, Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III has lived his life in fast forward, focusing solely on getting high and getting laid, but on the day of his 27th birthday, Tyler’s forced to hit pause and reassess, not only how he’s been living, but also just how much he’s neglected his legacy, and with what new insights his step grandmother gives him about the company as well as what it’s going to take to keep California Jane afloat, Tyler has to concede that his new motto needs to be rewind and replay. And his trip down memory lane starts with none other than Paris
Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild.
While it’s unclear what happened between Tyler and Paris over a decade ago, what is clear is that they have unfinished business and unresolved feelings for each other, which makes any business arrangement between these two a battle of wits, wills, and sexual tension. But there are also other variables to contend with and other people to consider, making this potential partnership mean so much more than the legally binding contract dictates and giving both Tyler and Paris either a way to let go of one another once and for all or grab hold of each other and never let go again.
I do have to admit…I didn’t particularly care for Tyler at the beginning; he’s definitely the quintessential rich playboy who seems to not care about anything but himself, but the further into the story I read, the more I started to like him, but I’m still not totally convinced, which means I need volume 2 ASAP!
ReWined Vol. 1 lays the foundation of Tyler and Paris’ story, providing them an opportunity to reconnect and perhaps enter into a mutually beneficial relationship - one that has the potential to either heal their heartache or further fracture what they once shared. There’s still so much for these two to individually sort through and their past has yet to be discussed or resolved, so I know that there are more hurdles for them to overcome, meaning that Tyler and Paris are going to have to work together for them to stand a chance at keeping their companies and their relationship on track.

Kim Karr is an instant one-click author for me, and the author did not disappoint with this story. I love the storyline where two people have to get married out of convenience, but I think what made this story even better is the shared history between the two characters and the way that they can’t stand each other because of events that happened in the past. The animosity between the two main characters made the dynamic of the situation even more dramatic and threw in the perfect amount of angst for the story while remaining light-hearted as well.
Paris was a feisty character that did not care what anyone else thought about her and was always herself despite growing up around people that wanted her to act differently. I love the way she did not perform the same as the other female characters in the story.
Tyler was the typical party boy that did not care about anything else than himself. However, when he was needed, he instantly stepped up to help. He was a caring character despite the way that he did not let others see it.
ReWined Volume 1 is the first book in a new series by author Kim Karr about the relationship between Tyler and Paris who need to get married in order to save their companies.
This story had me hooked from the first page of the book with characters that were humorous and enjoyable to read. However, it left me with a lot of questions about what happened in the past between the two main characters that made them feel the way they do about each other now. I am excited to read volume 2 of this series.

Ohhh Kim Karr is such a tease with Rewined; she gives just enough information to make the story flow but not enough to give a clear picture of the events that have shaped both of the main characters, Paris and Tyler.
Tyler starts off as being completely douche-tastic, embracing the playboy persona with added a-hole for good measure. The only thing he truly cares about is his family's winery which he is just about to inherit as per his Grandfather's wishes on his 27th birthday. Although there is a lot more at stake than Tyler realises when he is confronted with the reality of the status of the family business. Not to mention the very messed up family dynamic he has going on.
There are hints of a past relationship gone bad between Paris and Tyler as well as glimpses of the passion between them both past and present. However, no details are forthcoming as to the demise of their teenage relationship or the depth of emotion they shared - they really do epitomise the saying 'there is a fine line between love and hate'.
There are also subtle implications within the narrative that suggest there are a lot more family secrets to be dug up in the quest to save the winery. Kim feeds the reader little tidbits throughout volume one leaving room to infer the direction of the plot/relationship between Tyler and Paris in the next volume.
I adored Tyler's epiphany and the crossing of the love/hate divide, his alpha tactics were humorous to witness. I am excited to see where the next instalment will take us 😍

4.5 gloriously addicting stars!
Cheers to Kim Karr!! This book is so addicting, like a fresh glass of rose, I can't get enough. I gobbled ReWined up in one sitting. I was so excited when she announced this series. Kim Karr is an author that totally sneaks up on you. But once you've experienced her writing, you will want every single book in your grabby little hands STAT!!!
So enough with the wine puns (cuz I could go on allll day), let's talk about the delicious Tyler Holiday....WHOA, I just licked my lips over this guy haha. I mean, I could get drunk on him real quick! He's a bit of a man whore, a bit of a dick, but HAWT as hell....and lordy he's charming as sin BUT, who doesn't love an alpha-hole with a heart. A heart that, of course, beats for his family's winery, California Jane. The only real that worth anything in his life, the only thing he's truly passionate about. And when you heat that passion up a twist of an old love, watch out for the FIREWORKS that explode!!
Enter Paris Fairchild: she's got herself into a bit of a familial situation that involves her family's vineyard too. The only way for California Jane and Paris' vineyard to stay in business is to join forces. But there's a TON of history in the way to make that possible. Tyler won't let Paris get away again after 10 years of being separated. He's going to make her his. Let the games begin!
I can't tell you how fun, twisty, and HOT HOT HOT ReWined is. The chemistry is dynamic, the passion fiery, and the writing is off the charts. Everything I would expect from Kim Karr!! I can't wait for Vol 2, and thankfully, it's releasing SOON! I can't wait to see how Tyler and Paris get along, and get undone. Until the next one...

Kim Karr is an author that totally sneaks up on you. But once you've experienced her writing, you will want every single book in your grabby little hands STAT!!!
So enough with the wine puns (cuz I could go on allll day), let's talk about the delicious Tyler Holiday....WHOA, I just licked my lips over this guy haha. I mean, I could get drunk on him real quick! He's a bit of a man whore, a bit of a dick, but HAWT as hell....and lordy he's charming as sin BUT, who doesn't love an alpha-hole with a heart. A heart that, of course, beats for his family's winery, California Jane. The only real that worth anything in his life, the only thing he's truly passionate about. And when you heat that passion up a twist of an old love, watch out for the FIREWORKS that explode!!
Enter Paris Fairchild: she's got herself into a bit of a familial situation that involves her family's vineyard too. The only way for California Jane and Paris' vineyard to stay in business is to join forces. But there's a TON of history in the way to make that possible. Tyler won't let Paris get away again after 10 years of being separated. He's going to make her his. Let the games begin!
I can't tell you how fun, twisty, and HOT HOT HOT ReWined is. The chemistry is dynamic, the passion fiery, and the writing is off the charts. Everything I would expect from Kim Karr!! I can't wait for Vol 2, and thankfully, it's releasing SOON! I can't wait to see how Tyler and Paris get along, and get undone. Until the next one...

I feel like it’s been forever since I had a Kim Karr book on my Kindle! I was so excited to hear about this series and I’ve got to say, I’m hooked!
Tyler and Paris need each other but the thing is, they hate each other. There’s a family feud, not to mention history between the two (which I cannot wait to hear more details about) and they haven’t spoken in ten years. Now, both of their wineries are about to go under and as much as they’d both love to keep the past in the past, they desperately need each other to save their businesses. Which also means they need to get married.
I LOVE the push and pull between Tyler and Paris. The anger, frustration, the sexual chemistry, the snark..it’s absolutely perfect and you know when they finally cave, FIREWORKS!!! I’m a huge fan of a love/hate second chance romance and Kim Karr has absolutely nailed it!! I cannot wait to see where their story goes from here!

ReWined Volume 1 is a second chance enemies-to-lovers romance based on a marriage of convenience to save two families’ failing wineries. I'm very intrigued by the story, and there is definitely some passion brewing between Tyler and Paris's characters. I look forward to knowing what happened to split them apart in the past and what's in store for Tyler and Paris's future !
4 Stars for Me!

Tyler Holiday's life is about to change. It's time for him to shed his party boy image and grow up. There is a struggling business to deal with and the only way to save it might just involve having to deal with his arch nemesis.
Paris Fairchild. They used to be a thing. But ten years later they hate each other. He calls her the She-Devil and hates to see her partying around with some rich foreigner. She thinks he is an arrogant, self centered, emotionally void playboy. But the chemistry between them still sizzles.
But when they need each other to save their family businesses will mixing business with pleasure be the only way to make things better or will it ruin it all?
These two have snappy dialogue and are like oil and water. But they also still have a connection and the ability to really see below the surface of the other. There's a thin line between love and hate and Tyler is going to walk that line to try to sway her.
She's got choices to make between the safer option and the wildcard. Their history does not inspire trust, but Tyler can certainly be tempting.
They might both be thinking they are making a deal with the devil. It is definitely too hot to handle. But will it lead to their own destruction?
This is a witty, sexy, fun, enemies-to-lovers story with some mysteries that are slowly unraveling. It is told in dual points of view and there are some questions about the past that are affecting the present. I liked the setting and their businesses. I enjoyed the side characters. It leaves you wanting more and I am looking forward to see how their story progresses in the next installment.

4, Give me the next book, Stars!!
“Unrestrained. Wild. Out of control. This kiss was carnal, deep, desperate, and I felt dizzy. Breathless. Lost. Reborn. Whatever this was between us, it consumed me. Blinding me. Taking me to a higher place.”
“We were barbaric. Like animals. A sweaty mess. Crazed. Fire. Flames. A bonfire out of control.”
“Tyler Holiday was lethal. With every touch, every word, every look, he seduced me more and more.”
“Like two magnets, we moved closer, the zing of electricity that was always there between us seemingly growing stronger with some invisible tether. It felt like the walls were closing in. As if the universe wanted us closer than we were.”
ReWined Volume 1 is the first book in an all new series from author Kim Karr. This book is fast paced, entertaining and will certainly keep you on your toes.
Following the story of Paris and Tyler, ReWined Volume 1 is told from dual points of view. From the moment I picked up this book, I was totally sucked into Pairs and Tyler’s story. They seemed like such the perfect match, but something happened and it will be ten years before the two of them are reunited. You see, Tyler is about to take over his family’s business. He discovers that his business is in serious trouble and isn’t happy with the solution that’s being presented to him. Despite his feelings, Tyler will do anything to save his business, even if that means marrying the girl that stole his heart, but that he hasn’t seen in ten years. Sparks will fly and the tension is thick. So, all I can say is sit back and get ready to enjoy this fast paced and fun ride….
Since this book is such a quick read, there isn’t too much that I can say about it without spoiling it. Here’s what I can tell you: this book is a lot of fun. From secrets to lies to questions and explosive chemistry, this book has it all. Paris & Tyler’s story is so easy to get lost in. Their banter is exciting and the feelings they have for one another are more alive than either could imagine. Their story is filled with just the right amount of sexiness and drama to keep you begging for more. I just loved the push and pull between these two and am dying to see just how their story is going to play out.
ReWined Volume 1 kicked off this series to a terrific start. I can’t wait to get my hands on Volume 2 and see what this author has in store for Paris & Tyler next!

It's been so long since I had a book from this lady to read and despite being swamped with books I really missed her writing. She has hooked me with just one book, and after that I wanted more and more.
She can give us a comedy where we will laugh hard but she can give us a romance and make us cry. That for me is a must. An author that can make me feel things while reading is spectacular and I will keep tabs on then.
Kim Karr is fantastic and her books show us just that. Her writing is hot and wild, full of meaning and feelings. One chapter is all it takes for you to love her books. Just go for it.
Rewined is her latest release and tell us the stories of Tyler and Paris.
Tyler is a wild card. He only wants to party, get wild and a different woman in his bed everytime. He doesn't do relationships nor does he wants to.
He might be a wild card but it's his dream to take over his family business but to do so...
Paris likes to live her life freely and doesn't take shi*** from no-one. Her family business is in danger and she just wants to save it but in order to do so...
Perfect. Simply perfect like Kim always does.
Amazing plot, super detailed and engaging. Each chapter made me feel like I belong to the story.
The interaction between the characters is intense and hilarious. One minute they are having a conversation like two reasonable people and so much more and the next they are arguing. Oh lord... I've laughed so hard reading this but I was also mad. These two are stubborn as hell.
They gave us some hot stuff into the mix and I can't wait to read more. Why ended it? I wanted to keep reading and reading.
Oh Kim... Like always you overcome it. This series started perfectly and I can't wait for what's about to come.

This was an excellent start to a story. I enjoyed this second chance romance featuring two characters who burned hot for a time and then something happened to tear them apart. Years later, circumstance and a mutual goal have brought them back together. The passion is still red hot, but so is the tension and borderline hatred. It made for one heck of a steamy read.
I like the bossy, dominant, yet compassionate leading man Tyler. One moment he's overbearing and driving our leading lady Paris crazy. The next moment he's saying and doing things that show me exactly why she hasn't really let him go all these years. Paris on the other hand is an intriguing enigma. I liked the little bit I got over her in Vol. 1, but I am definitely looking forward to learning more as the rest of the story unfolds. I'm going to be anxiously awaiting Vol. 2. I need to know what happens next with the big question posed at the end of this one.

I'm super excited for this new series from Kim Karr!
You know when you start a new story and it just gives you all the feels? That's what happened with ReWined Volume One. I'm not sure where the author is headed with the next two installments, but I sure like what she did with part one.
I instantly made a connection with Tyler and Paris. Not your normal, everyday characters, but I loved them. You just never knew what to expect or what they would say next but there was no denying the chemistry. And the fact they've been reunited again, all so that Tyler can save the family's wine business, just makes it that much better. Tyler, though a bit arrogant, was such a sexy mess!
Karr made this story fun and I can't wait to see what she's come up with for part two. My head is contemplating all kinds of things with the way she left me hanging.

Paris and Tyler have had a hate-love thing going on for years. Tyler’s a party boy who inherited his family’s soon to be bankrupt winery. Paris is running her families winery and barely keeping it afloat. The two rival wine companies families historically dislike each other. Will they team up and try to merge in order to stay in business? Can Paris and Tyler ReWined time and put aside their bitter history? Are the two going to crush each others hearts like a wine-making grape press? I love a good cliffhanger, and I can’t wait to see where these two wine lovers’ relationship is going to go. This enemies-to-lovers second chance romance is the first book in the Party Ever After three book series. One-click worthy.

"Live free. Party hard. Get out fast." - (The Facts of Life according to Tyler Holiday)
Tyler has a talent for being the life of the party, but eventually you have to grow up. Paris Fairchild is the wake up call he never saw coming. She turns his world upside down with her smart mouth, her diva attitude and her sexy ways. She stole his heart once before. No way will he let that happen again. Too bad some things are beyond our control. ReWined is a flavorful tale of robust personalities and saucy attraction. Egos fly, hearts break and disorder runs wild, but in the most enticing way.

I'm new to Kim Karr's writing and I'm definitely reading her again after this book! Rewined is a sexy, funny and hot enemies-to-lovers, second-chance romance! The fact that features wine makes it even better 😉
Paris and Tyler are similar in so many ways. They both like to party, live on the edge and they both find themselves back to their hometown in order to save their family's legacies. Both their wineries are going down and the only way to save them is to marry each other and merge their companies. What seems easy, becomes more difficult because of the history between them.
It was hilarious to see their constant banter. Even thought they denied it, mostly Paris, the sexual tension and chemistry between them is undeniable!
The first volume doesn't really ends in a cliffhanger but I'm definitely curious to see how Tyler and Paris's story is continuing!

Adorably sweet with LOTS OF SEXY!
I love Paris and Tyler!
Adorably sweet with LOTS of sexy!
Tyler is bossy and arrogant , he’s doesn’t play nice or fair, he doesn’t do relationships or love, he’s your typical rich kid til he turns into a man in all the best ways.
I love this book it’s filled with pages of lust and hate. I’m not really sure what happened 10 years ago to make Paris hate Tyler but I’m sure we will find out soon enough. This book brought the heat with just enough sprinkle of humor. There’s an undeniable push and pull with these two I just can’t wait to see who comes out on top.
Can’t wait for Volume 2
Again Kim writes these books that always makes me come back for more.

Just when Tyler thinks he is about to take over his family's winery the truth comes and smacks him in the face. His only way out is to marry his arch enemy. But can he put his hatred aside for Paris and make the merger work? Or are some things just to much to overcome? With fabulous characters and a storyline that had me on needing to find out the answers this book was a great read. I could not put it down and look forward to the next book in the series.

~ 4 ReWINEd Stars ~
ReWINEd Volume 1 was a great and enjoyable start to an interesting enemies to lovers romance story.
This is truly the start of Tyler and Paris’s story. We are given a small look into their past relationship, when they were in high school and then we are fast forwarded 10 years later. We are left with many questions at the end of this volume, but we are also given some secrets that come out. All this does is leave the reader wanting more!! and that is exactly how I feel. I WANT MORE!!!
I don’t want to say too much about this volume because I don’t want to spoil anything for any readers. I will say this was an entertaining story between two past lovers, who over the course of 10 years have harbored a hate for each other like none other, but also have a love that is unbreakable!! Like they say….it’s a fine line between love and hate ;)
I look forward to finding out more of Tyler and Paris’s back history, but I also think there are going to be more secrets that will surface as this story unfolds. I loved both Tyler and Paris’s character. They are like oil and water, but it works for them
ReWINEd Volume 1 is NOT a standalone novel. You are left with a cliffhanger but it isn’t a terrible one. To me it was more like a too be continued ending. So I don’t believe if you aren’t a fan of cliffhangers you would have to wait to read this book. Although if you do decide to wait, the wait is only 2 weeks between each release. This story is told in Dual POV!! This is quick read, one that can be read in less than a day, a couple hours max. But that isn’t because it’s missing anything, it’s because it continues in the next volume.
I would recommend this series to all romance readers who are fans of the enemies to lovers trope. This is a quick, entertaining and steamy read.

This book is completely ridiculous, and reads like it is about and written by a college frat boy. The hero is supposed to be 27, but in the first few pages refers to him rolling out of bed and “lighting a blunt”. I’m a grown up, why would I want to read about a guy like that? Also the book keeps sliding to this big secret about their breakup ten years ago but never discusses it..

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 25, 2018
Life is short. Time is fast.
No replay. No rewind.
That’s my motto.
And there’s nothing wrong with that.
That is until the day I turn 27 and everything changes. Suddenly, I’m expected to…
1) Move back to my hometown.
2) Stop partying.
3) Take over my family’s winery.
4) And get married.
Wait!
What?
That last one I didn’t see coming.
I’m Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, Northern California’s most eligible bachelor, and I don’t do monogamy. It’s just a wild guess but I’d have to say that monogamy isn’t going to do me, either.
My grandmother won’t listen to a word I have to say on the matter. And since the old battle-axe is still at the helm of my legacy, it’s not like I can blow her off. However, when she tells me whom she thinks will make the perfect bride, and then subsequently drops me at said bride’s door, I nearly lose my f*cking mind. Sure, dear old granny tries to sugarcoat the situation with a lot of glitz and glamour, but there’s no turning ash into fairy dust.
Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild isn’t only the ultimate party girl and terrible wife material, she’s also my sworn enemy. We loathe each other. We have good reason. And it isn’t because our families are competitors.
Needless to say, I’m not surprised when the she-devil slams the door in my face—but it still pisses me off.
Apparently, she doesn’t know me as well as she thinks.
Doesn’t understand I’ve changed.
Doesn’t realize her rejection only spurs me on—makes me want to tame her, claim her, make her mine.
Then again, at 27 I’m no longer a lovesick teenager. I’m a grown-ass man with a big ego and an even bigger…never mind.
Paris says she doesn’t want to know how big I am, in any sense of the word.
I don’t believe her.
Either way, it doesn’t matter.
She’s a challenge I can’t resist. A temptation I can’t ignore. The woman I must have. We haven’t spoken in ten years but mark my words, she and I will be doing that and a hell of a lot more—very soon.
Life is short. Time is fast.
Replay. Rewind.
That’s my new motto.
And there’s no sugarcoating that.
••••••••
REVIEW: 4.25 stars--ReWINED is the first instalment in Kim Karr’s contemporary, adult PARTY EVER AFTER erotic, romance series focusing on heir to the winery California Jane, Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, and Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild, heir to the Highway 128 winery.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Paris and Tyler) using present day, and a prologue from the past ReWINED focuses on the contemptuous relationship between Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, and Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild, twenty-seven year old heirs to competing wineries, wineries struggling to survive. Inheriting the helm of California Jane on his twenty-seventh birthday came with a surprise to our story line hero. On the verge of bankruptcy, Tyler’s only option was to merge with the neighboring winery run by the Fairchild family, a family with whom the Holiday’s were at war. At his grandmother’s insistence, Tyler is forced to grovel with the woman who stole his heart years before. With a turbulent history between Tyler and Paris, grovelling won’t be easy, especially when Paris is unable to forgive Tyler for sins of the past. What ensues is Tyler’s pursuit of our story line heroine as Paris must come to a decision about her future and that of Highway 128 wines.
The relationship between Tyler and Paris is one of hatred and lust. Ten years earlier, high school sweethearts Tyler and Paris had a three month, sexually charged relationship that ended in disaster.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 25, 2018
Life is short. Time is fast.
No replay. No rewind.
That’s my motto.
And there’s nothing wrong with that.
That is until the day I turn 27 and everything changes. Suddenly, I’m expected to…
1) Move back to my hometown.
2) Stop partying.
3) Take over my family’s winery.
4) And get married.
Wait!
What?
That last one I didn’t see coming.
I’m Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, Northern California’s most eligible bachelor, and I don’t do monogamy. It’s just a wild guess but I’d have to say that monogamy isn’t going to do me, either.
My grandmother won’t listen to a word I have to say on the matter. And since the old battle-axe is still at the helm of my legacy, it’s not like I can blow her off. However, when she tells me whom she thinks will make the perfect bride, and then subsequently drops me at said bride’s door, I nearly lose my f*cking mind. Sure, dear old granny tries to sugarcoat the situation with a lot of glitz and glamour, but there’s no turning ash into fairy dust.
Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild isn’t only the ultimate party girl and terrible wife material, she’s also my sworn enemy. We loathe each other. We have good reason. And it isn’t because our families are competitors.
Needless to say, I’m not surprised when the she-devil slams the door in my face—but it still pisses me off.
Apparently, she doesn’t know me as well as she thinks.
Doesn’t understand I’ve changed.
Doesn’t realize her rejection only spurs me on—makes me want to tame her, claim her, make her mine.
Then again, at 27 I’m no longer a lovesick teenager. I’m a grown-ass man with a big ego and an even bigger…never mind.
Paris says she doesn’t want to know how big I am, in any sense of the word.
I don’t believe her.
Either way, it doesn’t matter.
She’s a challenge I can’t resist. A temptation I can’t ignore. The woman I must have. We haven’t spoken in ten years but mark my words, she and I will be doing that and a hell of a lot more—very soon.
Life is short. Time is fast.
Replay. Rewind.
That’s my new motto.
And there’s no sugarcoating that.

REVIEW: 4.25 stars--ReWINED is the first instalment in Kim Karr’s contemporary, adult PARTY EVER AFTER erotic, romance series focusing on heir to the winery California Jane, Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, and Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild, heir to the Highway 128 winery.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Paris and Tyler) using present day, and a prologue from the past ReWINED focuses on the contemptuous relationship between Tyler Justin Ryan Holiday III, and Paris Elizabeth Hollis Fairchild, twenty-seven year old heirs to competing wineries, wineries struggling to survive. Inheriting the helm of California Jane on his twenty-seventh birthday came with a surprise to our story line hero. On the verge of bankruptcy, Tyler’s only option was to merge with the neighboring winery run by the Fairchild family, a family with whom the Holiday’s were at war. At his grandmother’s insistence, Tyler is forced to grovel with the woman who stole his heart years before. With a turbulent history between Tyler and Paris, grovelling won’t be easy, especially when Paris is unable to forgive Tyler for sins of the past. What ensues is Tyler’s pursuit of our story line heroine as Paris must come to a decision about her future and that of Highway 128 wines.

Kim Karr brings us an enemies-to-lovers, second chance romance with a touch of drama and romantic comedy. ReWined is a fast and fun read!
Tyler Holiday has some major life changes to make. He has finally reached the age where he is eligible to take over as CEO of his family’s winery, California Jane. There is just one small issue – the company is struggling. Tyler’s grandmother comes up with the perfect solution. Marriage to Paris Fairchild, daughter of his competitor, Highway 128 Vineyards. This will combine their resources to save both of their companies. Highway 128 is also having financial issues. Seems easy, right? This is where the fun begins!!! Tyler and Paris were an item a long time ago. Let’s just say they didn’t part on friendly terms.
Ten years ago, we’d been inseparable, but we were young….
I was surprised by Tyler’s behavior in the beginning of the book. He is a crude, arrogant, self-centered jerk! There is history and chemistry between Tyler and Paris. Their break up is not explained – yet. Tensions are high and there is definitely a fight for control. Tyler is so alpha and manipulative but Paris will not be pushed around!
She’s a challenge I can’t resist. A temptation I can’t ignore. The woman I must have. We haven’t spoken in ten years but mark my words, she and I will be doing a hell of a lot more – very soon.
I really enjoyed ReWined. Tyler is starting to make a transition from a spoiled, rich jerk to something more. I’m not sure what that more will be yet, but I can’t wait to see! I loved Paris! She is fresh and original. Loyal to her family despite her own issues that they threw at her.
Tyler and Paris together are HOT! The sexy times will steam you up! Once they drop some of their walls, they are wild and unrestrained! ReWined is fast paced and fun! The end was just right. I can’t wait to read book #2! Wedding bells are ringing!
“Tyler Holiday was lethal. With every touch, every word, every look, he seduced me more and more.”
